Angst+Pfister at the ISH 2025

Our focus will be on our high-performance materials and sealing solutions for applications particularly in regulated industries like 

• Drinking Water 
• Hydrogen 
• Solar Thermal Energy 
• Gas 

Our exclusive materials - like EPDM, VMQ and HNBR - are designed to meet strict regulatory requirements and perform in challenging environments. 


Regulatory changes in the water industry 

One of the probably most significant questions regarding the development of the water industry at present is: 

Are you ready for the regulatory changes in the water industry and prepared your products accordingly? 

The current key regulatory updates to be aware of include: 

• March 2025: Introduction of the new KTW assessment basis (KTW-BWGL)  
• Approx 2028: Potential restriction of PFAS, requiring alternative materials 
• 2020-2027: The EU DWD revision, with a full transition to the EU system by 2032. 
• DVGW EN 549 / EN 682: Relevant standards from the German Gas and Water Association. 

With Angst+Pfister, you have exactly the right partner at your side, because we are experts in international regulations and certifications for water applications. We closely monitor the latest developments in this field and offer tailored consulting to ensure your products are compliant with evolving standards. Our expertise helps you stay ahead of regulatory changes, ensuring your products are market-ready on time. 


Hydrogen applications 

Equally relevant are sealing solutions for hydrogen applications. Angst+Pfister has been conducting research in this area for years and, after extensive testing with countless materials, we can already offer a wide range of these materials. Let us advise you. 


Antivibration and Fluid Handling Technology 

In addition, high-performance antivibration methods are becoming increasingly important for the water industry to avoid f.e. noise emissions which are increasingly being regulated by law. This also applies to application-specific Fluid Handling Solutions, which include our newly developed PFAS-free hoses and ASSIWELL® high-performance metal hose solutions.
